There are millions of couples in this country that can’t conceive a child. It’s a deep hurt that unless you’re affected by it, many cannot comprehend the anguish of people who want to raise their own flesh and blood and become good parents.
Then you have a story like this and it only makes it worse because these kind of people seem to have boatloads of children and they’re the most horrible parents in the world.
From ABC News:
A California couple faces child endangerment charges after police say they tried to sell their 6-month-old baby for $25 outside a Walmart store.
Salinas police spokesman, Officer Lalo Villegas, said Thursday that Patrick Fousek, 38, and Samantha Tomasini, 20, were arrested early Wednesday, hours after Fousek allegedly approached two women outside Walmart and asked if they'd like to purchase his child.
The women initially thought Fousek was joking, but when he became persistent, they became suspicious and reported it to police, Villegas said.
"They did an outstanding job and gave our officers good information. I don't know if they're mothers but they definitely had that instinct to help," Villegas said.
Fousek and Tomasini were arrested at 1 a.m. Wednesday at their home. Officers said the couple appeared high on methamphetamine and the house was in disarray. A police report also claimed that Tomasini told Child Protective Services, who took the baby, that she had breast-fed the infant while under the influence, Villegas said.
The couple was also booked on charges of being under the influence of narcotics, and Fousek was also served with an extra charge of violating probation. Villegas did not have details of Fousek's previous brush with the law.
I'm sure Progressives will say Society is to blame and these drug addicts are not responsible for their actions because there isn't enough drug programs to prevent this couple from trying to sell their baby.
